OAuth applications
Introduction
An OAuth application is the best way to build with Yoco for merchants who have multiple businesses, or partners who want to build integrations that can be used by other Yoco merchants.
Before getting started, it’s useful to be familiar with our OAuth 2.0 implementation.
Details about which Scopes and APIs you’ll need access to will be requested during the signup process.
Sign up for a Yoco developer account
To get started, a Yoco developer account is needed.
Please fill in the form below to request for one:
The Yoco Developer Team will get back to you with details of your developer account.
Once created, you will have the following information available:
- OAuth 2.0 Credentials for the sandbox environment
- Your first Sandbox application
Create a Yoco business in the sandbox environment
Go to https://hello.yocosandbox.com/signup and create a Yoco business. Take note of the email address and password you use to create the business.
Accounts created in the sandbox environment are for test purposes only, and cannot be used to transact.
Review and implement the OAuth 2.0 flow
Now that you have a developer account and a sandbox business, you can start implementing the OAuth 2.0 flow by following the steps in the OAuth 2.0 guide.
